422. Chapter 422 The real princess and the fake princess
I don’t know what kind of mental journey Olivia went through that night. When she broke camp early the next morning, she seemed to have finally figured it out and found Qian Wubing.
"General flag!" Listening to Qian Wubing's words, Olivia's eyes were surprised and happy: "Master Luka seems to be the general flag too!"
"Yes, in our Jinyiwei, a commander-in-chief has thirty or fifty people under his command. He is just right. The number of your subordinates is more than what the commander-in-chief can bring, but their reliability is not necessarily less.
, let’s just do this for now. Just like Luca, you have ten small banners. You can reward these people who follow you from birth to death. Otherwise, it is not so easy to get an official position in our Ming Dynasty.
matter!"
Qian Wubing had already decided on Alivia's position in her heart, so she would fight these mercenaries to the death. In the future, whether these Western mercenaries or Luca's miscellaneous troops, they would all be organized into a hundred households. If
In the future, it will not be difficult to expand the scale to thousands of households. This is because these thousands of households are different from the 63 serious thousands of households in the seven north and south of the Ming Dynasty. These thousand households can be regarded as overseas thousands of households, and they are responsible for managing those
"Foreigners" who served the Ming Dynasty but were not within the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, except for Qian Wubing, no one can control these people.
"Sir, you won't be giving out any more remuneration to the mercenaries, right?" After the joy, Alivia asked cautiously. Last night, she thought about it for half the night, and finally figured it out, except for her and the twenty or so people who followed her
Mercenary No. 1, the rest of them basically rebelled against Mr. Qian. It would be a great grace for Mr. Qian not to execute them all. It would be a dream to still want remuneration. As for her, the mercenary leader,
If the remuneration of the mercenaries under her is not collected, the actual benefits are not very big. Compared with becoming Master Qian's subordinate, the money this brings you is really not worth showing off. Imagine what she and these people under her would do if
Now that they have the official status of the Ming Empire, who will dare to bully them in Haojing from now on? Will they drive away the extremely arrogant head catcher without seeing Luka alone?
"What do you think!" Qian Wubing glared at her: "It's a good thing that you don't have a money-obsessed mind. What does that little money mean? Even if you increase it ten times, you may not be able to exchange it for a general banner position under me. Our Jinyiwei
, If you have the ability, you can’t make money anywhere!”
These words happened between the two of them on the march. Tottori Castle was certainly not Qian Wubing's first choice of place to stay. Nagasaki was his target. Therefore, after breakfast early in the morning, the army broke camp.
Walking in front were the mercenaries who had held up their trousers yesterday. They were all so sluggish that if someone who didn't know the situation saw it, they would have thought it was this army with bright armor escorting this group of prisoners.
Qian Wubing didn't care whether Olivia listened to this or not. When he returned to Nagasaki Castle as agreed, Maori Yuan would offer the reward of these two days, a total of 600 taels of gold.
Qian Wubing waved his hand and rewarded him, but when he saw Olivia's eyes immediately turning golden, he knew that even if the long-legged girl didn't care about him before, she must be extremely concerned about him now.
.
The way of running an army is to reward merit rather than punishment. If you want others to serve you wholeheartedly, even if you talk about righteousness, it will not be as attractive as this golden thing. Qian Wubing knows this very well. Especially when you are generous to others.
In order to buy up the morale of the army and boost morale for himself, Qian Wubing spent the money very smoothly.
The soldiers received twenty taels of gold each, and the officers received double that. And she, who had just become an officer of the Royal Guards this morning, actually received the same reward as Luca, a full twenty taels of gold, plus the early remuneration received a few days ago.
She felt that she was already an out-and-out little rich woman. She had never had so much wealth since she came to the East.
This money comes too easily.
If, after thinking about it all night, she was still worried about becoming Qian Wubing's official subordinate, at this moment she simply had no worries at all. In the words of later generations, at this moment her loyalty was directly 100, and she even used force casually.
addition!
The next few days became very leisurely. The Maori family's territory suddenly more than doubled, and they were busy absorbing and digesting the places they had gained through the blessing of money and no illness. As for the two gunboats on the pier,
Regarding the placement of these tigers and wolves under Qian Wubing, the Mao family's attitude was a bit cynical.
When Qian Wubing began to arrange for his soldiers to be stationed near the dock and did not let them enter the city, Qian Wubing smiled slightly. It seemed that the Maoli family's precautions were appropriate. However, he estimated that,
To prevent their own people from entering the city, what the Maori family showed should be an attitude, not a determination. After the Battle of Tottori Castle, I believe the Maori family had already made up their mind as to whether they could stop this Ming army.
.What they do is nothing more than distinguishing the host and the guest, reminding themselves not to overshadow the guest and usurp the host.
Therefore, Qian Wubing was not angry. Even with the two gunboats, Qian Wubing planned to let Grisha replenish supplies and go for a walk outside. It was really hard for such a murderous big guy to stay in Nagasaki.
It's so disharmonious. The people who come to Nagasaki are mainly businessmen of all kinds traveling from north to south. If this scares people, how can they do business?
To his surprise, Motonari Maori didn't care about this, and even took the initiative to ask the gunboats to stay in Nagasaki. It seemed that in the eyes of the Maori family, these two gunboats were of less importance than the hundreds of samurai.
It is much heavier, and they can pull off the tiger skin as a banner. They can pull it off with ease. With such force, who would doubt the strength of the Maori family? Who would dare to disobey the rules in Nagasaki?
What are the rules of the Maori family?
The foundation of the Maori family is in Nagasaki. With these two gunboats, Nagasaki will not be lost and can continuously provide wealth to the Maori family. The Maori father and son seem to know this very well.
Qian Wubing was also happy. Anyway, at least, he had achieved his first goal of coming to Fusang - he had established a foothold in Fusang. As for the rebels of the Qin brothers, he really didn't know anything about it now.
Don't worry, if these people are really wiped out, he is worried that he will have no reason to stay in Fusang. With this excuse, even if his actions in Fusang are reported to the court, he will have words to explain.
It is worth mentioning that after the war, Mao Lilan was still sent to Qian Wubing by her biological brother. It seemed that Mao Liyuan had decided that Qian Wubing would be tied to the Maoli family's chariot.
Money is essential, but giving this to a woman is also essential.
However, when Mao Lilan appeared next to Qian Wubing again, her identity had changed. She was no longer the pitiful leader of the ninja army, but appeared next to Qian Wubing under the name of the princess of the Maoli family.
. This made Grisha feel depressed. She felt that Mao Lilan had simply insulted the title of princess. She was a princess, but his empire was extremely vast and there were countless people. However, a port city as big as a palm, a
It is also necessary to use external forces to save the family of the head of the family. How dare the daughter of such a family be called a princess?
For this reason, Grisha didn't like to see Mao Lilan very much. Even Mao Lilan's request to board the ship to see her was rudely rejected by him. Anyone on her own could come aboard her Princess, but this fake princess
, not allowed to come up! I don’t know what Olivia’s mental journey went through during the night. When she left camp early the next morning, she seemed to have finally figured it out and found Qian Wubing.
